Aimed at transforming sectors like book publishing, security printing, and variable data printing, this partnership signifies a new era of high-speed, high-quality, and cost-effective digital printing in the country. With plans to install multiple units across India by the end of 2025, Kridwinn Innovations is set to play a key role in accelerating India’s transition toward next-generation print-on-demand technology.
Kridwinn Innovations will exclusively sell, support, and service Hongda Digital’s print-on-demand Roll-to-Sheet Inkjet Presses across India.
Gurgaon based Kridwinn Innovations Private Limited has signed an exclusive partnership agreement with Hongda Digital Technology Co.Ltd., a sister concern of McLantis International (Shanghai) Group, for the Indian market. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in the advancement of industrial inkjet printing solutions in India.
Under this agreement, Kridwinn Innovations will exclusively sell, support, and service Hongda Digital’s print-on-demand Roll-to-Sheet Inkjet Presses across India. These solutions are ideal for a wide range of applications including book publishing and printing, security printing, variable data printing, newspaper production,transactional document printing, and many more. The partnership also includes the introduction and future support of all current and upcoming product lines from Hongda Digital in India.
Jimit Mittal, Managing Director of Kridwinn Innovations, stated, “We were amazed by the print quality—almost indistinguishable from offset printing—delivered by Hongda Digital’s machines. Over three months, we extensively evaluated their performance by visiting 8 to 10 production sites across China. The machines consistently demonstrated reliability, stability, and production efficiency. With exceptional print quality, competitive equipment and operating costs, and high productivity, this solution is the perfect fit for India’s growing book publishing industry. We believe it will set a new benchmark in the market.”
While, Chen Daidou , Director of Hongda Digital, commented, “We first met Jimit Mittal and his team a few months ago and were highly impressed with their deep knowledge of inkjet technology and the Indian market. Since industrial inkjet solutions require strong after-sales support, we found Kridwinn team’s 20+ years of experience and technical capabilities very compelling. The decision to collaborate was quick—and so far, Kridwinn has far exceeded our expectations. We look forward to a long-term, successful partnership in India.”
Jimit further added, “The DIGIMAC CMYK Series from Hongda Digital is available in 440 / 660 / 880 mm web widths, with options for Roll, Sheet, or Fold outputs. It supports speeds of up to 120 meters per minute, offering both 1-bit binary mode for high productivity and 2-bit grayscale mode for high-quality output. The machines use water-based pigment inks compatible with uncoated papers (50–150 gsm) and are built on Epson inkjet printhead technology. The Digital Front End (DFE) is user-friendly and features a high speed IP engine compatible with PDFs and other common formats.”
“We are excited to share that five machines will be installed at customer sites in India by December 2025,” Mittal announced. “India is evolving rapidly in digital printing. In the near future, digital press installations will outpace conventional printing machines in several industrial segments. Printers across India are now realizing the value digital brings in agility, cost-efficiency, and growth potential.”
